A friend of mine emailed this to me and it was so encouraging. I'm so blessed to know the truth from God's word. I tried handling lot of things myself along with God. But it was all in vain so I decided to lay ALL my plans and ALL my desire on the alter. Like how Abraham climbed Mount Moriah to lay down Issac just like that I have climbed Mount Moriah lot of times but it's gonna be different this time coz I'm laying it ALL on the alter. This time I want God ALONE to plan. By faith I declare that when When God Does It, It’s Perfect! I hope it blesses you as well. Here it goes:
Once as a young child, I came across a shrub with gorgeous flowers. When I discovered a budding flower among the fully opened ones, I thought that it would be a great idea to help it blossom. So I tried to peel open the petals one by one…and bit by bit, the flower became undone as the petals were torn off in my little hands. I had begun with good intentions, but killed the poor flower in the end!
My friend, when it comes to our areas of concern, our human efforts to solve our problems, despite the best of intentions, cannot produce results that are as beautiful as if we were to allow God’s wisdom and timing to do it. It’s when we rest from our self-efforts and struggles to solve our problems, and allow God to work in us and through us, that we see divine results.
I’ve often said this: If God wants all the glory, then allow Him to do all the work. God loves it when you look to and lean on Him alone. In heaven, it’s, “Worthy is the Lamb,” and not, “Worthy is the Lamb…and me.”
Beloved, stop trying to make it all happen through your own strength and wisdom. Cease from trying and start trusting the Lord. Let Him work in and through you to overcome your challenges, accomplish your dreams and fulfill His plans and purposes for your life. When God does it with His incomparable wisdom, power and timing, it can only be perfect!
…it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
Philippians 2:13
